(WARNING 21+) A stunning video recorded on a Sonoma County sheriff’s deputy’s bodycam was released Friday of a fatal confrontation with carjacking victim David Ward, who was forcibly dragged through the window of his vehicle last month when he was mistaken for the thief and died after being choked during his apprehension. The sheriff’s office initially delayed releasing the video following a public records act request from The Press Democrat to disclose it. According to the sheriff’s office, the video was held because disclosing it earlier would interfere with the ongoing internal investigation. Ward called Santa Rosa police on Nov. 🔫👮🏻‍♂️ #taser

Ward called Santa Rosa police on Nov. 24 to report he had been the victim of a carjacking. On Nov. 27th, unbeknownst to authorities, Ward had somehow gotten his car — a Honda Civic — back.
“It started when we received a call from the Santa Rosa police department that a car which had been stolen during carjacking several days prior had been located and was on the move,” said Sheriff Mark Essick on the video. “Our deputies responded and tried to pull it over.”
The pursuit started a short time later involving deputies and two Sebastopol police officers. Ward refused to pull over as the chase continued and was finally stopped in his hometown of Bloomfield on Sutton St. and Hillview St. when he went down a dead-end street and the deputies used a PIT maneuver to pin him in.
On the bodycam video, the deputies pull out their guns and order Ward to put his hands up. They approach the Honda with guns drawn, ordering Ward — who has visible injuries on his face from the violent carjacking days earlier — to open his door and get of the vehicle.
Ward has difficulty unlocking the door, but does roll down his window. Deputy Charles Blount approached the window and Ward tells the deputy — “I can’t believe this, I’m the injured party.”
As Blount reaches into the car with handcuffs, Ward is heard saying, “What is it?”
Blount then grabs Ward’s arm and begins to tug him out of the vehicle through the driver’s side window. But Ward’s leg is struck under the steering wheel as he cries out in agony. Blount and a Sebastopol officer continue to attempt to pull the struggling Ward through the window. Ward then bites the deputy and is tasered by another deputy.
Blount slams Ward’s head against the door jam and begins to choke him until Ward goes limp. The deputies and officers then pull Ward’s limp body out of the open passenger side door.
He is placed on the ground, handcuffed and then the deputies and officers notice he is unconscious and not breathing. They attempt CPR. While not on the video, their attempts to revive him are unsuccessful. Ward dies at the scene.
The video continues with a officer identified as Deputy Jax walking up and telling Blount and the other deputy, “This is, this is the owner of this car. That’s David Ward. He’s the victim, he’s the victim of the 215 (carjacking).”👮🏻‍♂️

Fire crews have recovered one body as the recovery and investigation phases continue after three row houses were leveled by an explosion and fire in South Philadelphia. Fire Commissioner Adam Thiel says a second person remains missing and is presumed dead. Thiel says this is a delicate and dangerous process as they begin searching for victims. Three homes collapsed and two more were severely damaged and are in danger of collapse. When fire crews arrived on the scene Thursday, they spotted one person in the rubble. However, because of the growing fire and a second collapse, Thiel said crews were unable to rescue the person. Officials still haven’t said what caused the explosion, but people in the neighborhood reported smelling gas.💥🔥

The DEA and U.S. Coast Guard announced today a significant offload of drugs seized in international waters in the Eastern Pacific Ocean. Agents with the DEA and the crew of the USCG Cutter Bertholf offloaded 18,000 pounds of cocaine – worth an estimated $312 million – at the Tenth Avenue Marine Terminal in San Diego. DEA Principal Deputy Administrator Preston Grubbs, along with U.S. Coast Guard Vice Admiral Linda Fagan, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of California Robert Brewer, and Captain Brian Anderson, commanding officer of the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Bertholf, made the announcement during a press conference at the offload site. The fight against drug cartels in the Eastern and Western Pacific requires unity of effort in all phases from detection, monitoring and interdictions, to criminal prosecutions by U.S. Attorney’s Offices in districts across the nation.

WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT! Today, the Seattle Police Department (SPD) is releasing video of a canine team taking a robbery suspect into custody. This video was released to a media outlet in fulfillment of a public disclosure request, and due to public interest in police accountability, we are also releasing the video publicly, as well as a clip edited for length. Although Chief Carmen Best found the actions of the canine team consistent with 2018 department training, Chief Best also believed the deployment was not consistent with SPD’s Use of Force policy nor the values of our department. In late 2018, Chief Best ordered a thorough review of how SPD uses canines. The department worked with the Office of Police Accountability, the court monitor, and the Office of the Inspector General (OIG), as well as two independent canine training experts to develop meaningful policy recommendations. 🐶👮🏻‍♂️ #K9
